Heavenfall

The ogre's next attack got Ko solidly in the ribs. She gasped and tried to lift her club again, but she couldn't seem to get enough air, and it hurt a lot... was this what drowning was like? She dropped to her knees, and then failed to catch herself from collapsing further as her injured shoulder ga...

Ko blocked the worst of the ogre's next strike, though she felt something twist in her wrist as she redirected its giant club. She struck back and managed to clip it in a lightly armored spot. -- Stance: Full Attac ATN: 15 Reduction: 3 Wounds: soaked 1 of that 26 damage (armor), last Void to reduce ...

The ogre's blow crunched hard onto Ko's shoulder, and she could feel muscle bruise and tear. She shrieked vengeance and swung back... but her club went wide and almost clipped Taochusu instead. -- Stance: shift to Full Attac ATN: 25 Reduction: 3 Wounds: soaked 1 with armor, so 27/81, Nicked (+3) VP:...

Ko grits her teeth and holds her position until the first of the massive monsters reaches Taochusu and Satone's position, then sweeps in implacably as the tide. Her blow lands last, but probably finishes the creature off. --- Delay turn until after Tao and Satone (initiative will return to its origi...

"Whatever's out there, I have a feeling it's not all this little." Ko nudged a dead goblin away with a leather-shod toe. She fished a hollow section of bamboo tube out of her belt pouch and, with great care, pulled the stopper and tipped out a little of the precious jade salve onto the leading edge ...

Ko twists to avoid the worst of the goblins' dirty blades, noticing the dim light of the campfires reflecting off them as she does so. Even these bakemono have the bright weapons. We really are alone on our shore. She channels her frustration into a furious swing of her warclub that leaves the last ...

This could be worse... so far. Still, the frothing rage of the next group of creatures who swarmed up to their position was unsettling. Maybe a good smashing would settle them down. Ko's club whistled through the air as she let out her kiai again! --- Stance: Attac ATN: 25 Reduction: 3 Wounds: none ...

Ko stepped in closer to the archer in Taochusu's wake. She angled the swing of her warclub to drive the horrible little humanoids away from Reo, in hopes that he could clear his bow in time to take a shot before the others closed in. Who would have thought a weapon with only a wooden edge could be s...

"I don't know... I'm not that different from anybody," Ko protested, still somewhat sheepish. She accepted the bowl of salve and sniffed at it. It certainly smelled like medicine. She tugged off her hood and pulled gently at the collar of her shirt, then scooped up some of the stuff with her fingers...

I have the strength of five gorillas.

Unfortunately, gorillas aren't actually known for their great Will stats.

Also, we still have two spots open. Who else was interested?

Oooh.

Ko says thank you!

I could probably share half if someone else in the thread also needs some, assuming 1 finger of jade makes 10 'servings.'

"Oh. Okay." It made sense that Jin would rather work under cover than get out his medicine man things outdoors in this disgusting weather, come to think of it. Ko knew from experience that once there was no longer water against her skin, her body would simply forget its sea-breathing, and the whole ...

"Jin of the Unicorn!" Just the person she'd been hoping to run into, she realized. Someone who might have some salve for her neck... and wouldn't stab her with a jade-smeared knife before asking questions. She made the greeting gesture with her free hand, pressing it against her heart with fingers s...

But, since I've been in a fight, I should sit down.

Eh. I went in. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We only have so many bruisers with thwompin' sticks, and I'm around today.

Camp, EA: viewtopic.php?f=69&t=890

Specifically, I would love to grab a healer to clean up the measly 5 wounds Ko has taken here before charging into battle. A plain ol' Medicine roll would probably do the trick.

"Ow." Ko muttered a string of semi-nonsensical phrases that was likely cursing in the Shore People's isolated dialect as she searched through the camp for one of the healers. At least, all that stuff about rotting oysters and cracked keels certainly didn't sound positive. She had a hand pressed awkw...

Ko gripped her warclub and swiped a stray drop of the foul rain from her forehead with the back of her other hand before it could trickle closer to her eye. This was it; this was how she'd prove her people--humans and ningyo both--were worth the attention and aid of the Kami and their Empire. And al...

Oh whoops. Something potentially time-sensitive/combat-relevant in my PF questions thread here.

I'd worry though that stuff like poison or knockdown or disarm and the like would be ineffective since its multiple enemies just combined into one. You should pop it in GM questions! Already done :D I don't know if it will work, but it's time to break out that Kumo venom sack too! This being the Sh...
